Obeisance to you,
O the one,
Nāda and bindu united in essence;
O the indestructible one;
Obeisance to you,
O the one
Of lotus-feet ever praised
By Nārada and other sages;
Obeisance to you,
O the one
Flower-like jewel-lamp
Illumining the four Vēdās.
Obeisance to you,
O Mother
Most dear to the four-headed Brahmā
And other gods,
Obeisance to you!
